November Art Roundup - With LOTS Of New Give-Aways!

This 11X17 poster was apparently only available at cons for one season, but I was lucky enough to snag one at Florida Supercon several months back... which I promptly smooshed a little while carrying around. So I bought another one. That means I have one slightly smooshed signed poster available on the Epbot give-away board, if you'd like it. :)

This design is also available as a t-shirt at the official Irrational Games store for $24 - although I'm not a fan of the light blue background. (The men's style comes on a much more attractive gray.)

Echo has a truly gorgeous art nouveau pin-up style, so if you like that you should really check out the rest of her work. Here's part of her "Baked Cthulhu" set:

I bought both of these from Alex at the same con, but not only are
they not available anywhere online, I couldn't even find these images anywhere - so I took these pics with my phone. (Sorry. They're too big to scan!)

You should still be able to get them in person from Alex, though, so watch for him at your local conventions. Or, better yet, just comment below to win one! Both are going on my give-away board.

Nathan Szerdy is a local Florida artist with a really diverse range of art and fun style. I've chatted with him several times at local events, and have done my best to berate him each time for not having a web store for most of his work. (Are you sensing a common theme here? Ha!)

If you're lucky enough to catch him at a con, though, here's some of what you can buy from Nathan:

I purchased two big prints from him, and both are going on the give-away board. Again, you can only get these from Nathan in person - and in fact, he doesn't even have this first one on his website, so... iPhone to the rescue, AGAIN.

(Kinda frustrated with how this one turned out; it's way nicer in person!)

And for you Edward Gory/Tim Burton fans:

I know I should have featured this one LAST month, but I have so much of an art stash backing up I honestly didn't find it 'til a few weeks ago. o.0 (This is an awesome problem to have, btw.)

Anyway, this is from Nathan's graphic novel, Lola and the 11 Secrets. Hit that link to buy the book; it's chock full of gorgeous art just like this.

And finally, Charles Thurston is yet another local Florida artist I've been silently cursing for not having all of his art online - and here's the reason why:

LOOK HOW CUTE THIS IS.

(It's Doctor Chew! Or maybe WHObacca? :D)

Yes,
of course I bought it. And yes, of course it's not available anywhere
in his online store. (This is another phone picture.) I happen to know
Charles through some mutual friends, though, so I'm allowed to yell at
him here, right? CHARLES, PUT THIS IN YOUR ONLINE STORE!!Thank you.[11/17 Update: Charlie tells me these prints were a collaboration with fellow artist Danny Haas, and they were a limited edition run of only 200. I've talked to the guys since, though, and I THINK I've convinced them to make a few changes and do another run. I'll keep you posted!]
Charles also sells a bunch of adorable little story booklets that introduce younger kids to fandoms like Doctor Who, Star Wars, Firefly, and the like:

All of Charles' booklets are $7 each, and they're freaking adorable, so watch his Etsy shop for new listings.

Hope you enjoyed this month's roundup, guys! As always, remember to comment below to enter to win the art of your choice from my Pinterest art give-away board - and head over there to see all the new pieces I've added since last month!

Oh, and since I'm adding so much new art I'll be picking TWO random winners this month. I'll announce the winners sometime early next week - and yes, I'll ship anywhere!

UPDATE: The giveaway has ended, and the winners are Betty Martin & Renee of "A Bibliophile's Life For Me!" Congrats, ladies, and please e-mail me to claim your prize!

I love the art nouveau style, but the Hulk poster is speaking to me now. Then again there's a little girl down the street who would absolutely DIE for the Batman and Batgirl tiny prints. She would sleep in her Batman mask if her parents let her.

You always have such wonderful arts. I am so very jealous if your collections, and ashamed of my blank walks. I've dropped hints, though, for Christmas... http://www.litographs.com/collections/posters/products/leagues may be on my wall soon.

So many great pieces this month, but that Doctor Chew did my in! Adorable! And I'm definitely going to keep an eye on Charles Thurston's Etsy shop for new books for any future nieces or nephews I might have.

Ok, I am going to throw my name in the hat again and hope that I win this month. And even if I don't win (sigh), I will keep checking the web site daily for more crafts that I can make. Thanks for all that you do for all of us. Love you lots!!!

Your art posts have inspired me to start my own Haunted Mansion themed collection. I picked up a Noah print while visiting WDW last month and just yesterday added the Jerrod Maruyama print you featured here.

And I see a couple pieces in your giveaway that would fit in nicely with my spooky decor tastes. :)

*excited squeak!!* Oh my goodness those are all amazing! I love the Merida, and I love the Whobacca! (I may have giggle-snorted into my oatmeal at that one) Aw heck, I love all of these! Thank you for bringing such talented artists to light!

I would love so much to win the Elizabeth artwork! I love Elizabeth and songbird, and I find her very inspiring, I wish that I could control realities, but alas, I must settle for doing it in my stories.

Squee I want to win so bad, i wanted the little labrinth guy but he is gone so i am not meant to have him, now i shall move on to the other awesome things and just droool for a while LOL. I love art round up so much cool stuff!!!!

I love all the new stuff, but I am still drooling over those cutie-pie Joker & Harley / Batman & Batgirl pics! I may just cave and try to create my own copies while staring at my computer screen one of these days! My Basement rec-room is being done up in a cartoon theme with pop art and comic references throughout and those posters would play into the theme so wonderfully!

Would love, love, LOVE the Brave one! Even as Disney attempts to ruin a good thing they started with slimming her waist and accentuating her, ummm, assets - she is still one of our favorite princesses.

Ack! That Nightmare Before Christmas piece is awesome. My daughter and I are HUGE Tim Burton fans, and I have not yet found an awesome gift for her recent birthday. That would be a great surprise to hand to her.

This is a very very tough decision. I guess... I GUESS Doctor Chew/ WHObacca will be my selection. O roving finger of fate, point your capricious and overly-long fingernail upon me, your luckless servant!

Wow, it's all so freaking adorable! I though I was sold on that Nightmare poster, but Merida... So gorgeous. She will always be my favourite princess. :D Fingers crossed that I get the chance to put some adorableness on my wall!!!! :D Thanks for the chance, Jen!

I can't seem to get it to post with my LJ account, but I'm Sarayana. -- If I'm wrong, sorry for double posting.

These are all absolutely gorgeous! I don't know how I would decide between them but I'd sure like to have the chance ;)Seeing these posts makes me incredibly jealous of all your con-going as I've never been before. Hopefully next year, and hopefully our relatively new convention will have some awesome artists as well!

That Doctor Chew/ WHObacca is fricking adorables! Thank you so much for sharing the geeklet books though! Everyone I know seems to be having spawn or more spawn so it's nice to have something fun, fresh and relatively inexpensive to pick up!

Too hard to choose (LOVE rocket to the moon) ... but ... my daughter, Elizabeth, steampunk fan ... would adore the first one! Still trying to download pics of her at Steamcon in WA last month to send you!Foots

I don't know where I'd put the Cupcake Cthulu one in my house, but these are all great. lol You really have a good eye for this stuff! I'll definitely add these artists to my "artsy-surfing" entertainment. Don't know about you, but I totally have days where my surfing-for-info just turns into wandering around looking at art. The joys of the internet! ;)

I'm in LOVE with the Sully and Mike one- I have a Monsters Inc lithograph in my son's room and this would be a great addition! 2nd choice is the Wonder woman in her airplane, I like that one for myself! :)Nicole S.

Please, please, please...I NEED the "don't make me angry, you wouldn't like me when I'm angry" one. I need to hang it in my room above the bed where my husband can see it everyday of his life...for his own good, you understand! And maybe one to put in his car, and a wallet sized one for his, well, wallet...
